Yes I'm feeling somewhat relieved.
One more win and we play finals - if we can't manage one win from our last 4 matches we don't deserve to be there anyway.
Rd 23 vs Collingwood may well be a situation where we need to win to play finals and Collingwood need to win to make the top 4. A blockbuster for the ages!

Even if we don't win another game, either Saints or Dogs need to win two games to catch us (given STK won't gain enough percentage with only one win)

They play the first two games next week so if they both lose we might know we are locked into the 8 before we play Melbourne

Dogs have GWS at Marvel and the Hawks in Round 23 so we'll need a win to play finals IMHO.

Yep. Although that Hawks game is in Tassie which helps a bit.

Hopefully we take destiny into our own hands tomorrow

If Tigers win all 4 games, I will eat my own shit, film it and put it on YouTube. :wink:

2 games in the bag and they have Hawks and Junkies left to play...

Too early to set the table?

Not at all. They will drop one of those games. They are too flaky and injury prone.

Kind of like another team I know....

Not necessarily. They still have to overcome the 5% gap in percentage. Two small wins probably won't be enough.

We really need to win one to guarantee finals though.

We dropped 3% against the 16th team last week. As I said at the time, it wasn't just the loss of 4 points that hurt us. If we lose the remaining games, we also have to include our % drop into calculations. I wouldn't like our chances. Let's hope we get a win and control our own destiny.

Let's just win today and then who cares what dogs do. They can winning remaining 2 by 150 and it won't matter.
Despite our injuries, lions are beatable.

We might need to win to make finals whilst the Pies might need to win to make top 4.

If we all think positively maybe we can channel all that positive energy to the team in Brisbane.
GO BLUES!

Can't see GWS beating the dogs here. Maybe hawks in Tassie.

Anyway, it's still in our hands. They can rip something out of their @#$%&! asses still!

Sportsbet still has us $1.22 to make the top 8.
Weird.
